Tanzania’s Animals and People
Raymond was great! He has a great personality and certainly knew his stuff. He was full of facts and stories about Tanzania, its animals, its people, history and much more. He joined us for dinner several times and we enjoyed his conversations. I can honestly say I think he’s the best driver I’ve ever met! How he got us through some of the muddy roads is a mystery to me. He even drove us through a road where a truck was already stuck in the mud, but he went through it in seconds. He was very safe. He also arranged a meetup with Maningo, our guide in 2013, to say hello in person. Due to delayed flights, my sister-in-law, daughter and I arrived at the airport hours after my brother’s arrival. Rather than take my brother to the hotel, Raymond stayed with him at the airport and got to know him quite well. When my sister-in-law’s luggage was lost, he followed up with the office daily and updated her regularly. He drove back to get her luggage while we were in the hotel in the Ngorongoro Crater. Raymond was particularly good at positioning our vehicle for the best photographs. He let us decide when we were ready to move on if we wanted to stay longer for viewing.
“I’m impressed! All our dealings with Access2Tanzania were highly professional and responsive to our needs and interests. Once in Tanzania it was clear that our planning and communication with Karen and staff paid off. Overall, the trip exceeded my wildest expectations! I would not hesitate to recommend Access2Tanzania to anyone–and have, in fact, already supplied a friend with contact information for Karen. At the end of many trips I’m ready to go home. In this case, not. Our guide, David, worked extremely hard to provide us with the best possible game (and bird) experience. It was evident that he was proud of working for Access2Tanzania.”
